During our entire Magnet run, they had fliers posted everywhere,

"Magnet, higher nursing satisfaction, better nurse to patient ratio's"

Well apparently their idea of better ratio's means giving us more patient's.

Our ratio just went from 4 TO 6 when giving chemo, this is on a medical/oncology unit.

We have busy medical patient's to care for also when giving chemo!

A 50% increase, and that's nursing satisfaction.

We have lost 2 of our best charge nurses and more are looking for another job.

What could be a good job TEMPORARY MANAGEMENT HAS RUINED!

Spent 3 years of a 20 year career at Durham Regional, left in 2010. Absolutely the worst place I have ever worked!! Not safe! Administration is psychotic!! Nothing like the rest of the Duke system. Back at the main Duke Hospital for 2 years now and couldn't be happier! Wish I had never left.......at least not for that place!
